As The Hammer Drops

As the hammer drops like the swing of an axe 
Bloated statistics, sold as facts  

As the hammer drops, they watch us all scatter Convenience served on a silver platter 
(As the hammer drops) 
But if you're not invited to the table, then what does it matter? 
(Like the swing of an axe)  

Are you buying what they're selling?  

Panic ensues, paranoia swelling 
But are you buying what they're selling?  

As the hammer drops, like the swing of an axe 
Squalid conditions on a silver platter  

As the hammer drops, like the swing the of an axe"
